US - To assist the poultry industry in preparing for potential future exposure to highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), an 'Avian Influenza Outbreak…Lessons Learned' Conference has been scheduled for July.

The conference will take place on 28-29 July 2015, at the Des Moines Marriott Downtown in Des Moines, Iowa.

Registration for the conference is free to qualified stakeholders of the poultry industry. In order to facilitate open, frank discussion, the conference will be closed to media. To maximise broad industry participation, the number of registrations will be limited per company or organisation.

The conference agenda was developed through the collaboration of the National Chicken Council, National Turkey Federation, United Egg Producers, USA Poultry & Egg Export Council, US Department of Agriculture, and US Poultry & Egg Association.
